51-FORTH is an implementation of the
Intel 8051 microcontroller. It was created in 1989 by Scott Gehmlich of IDACOM Electronics (which was acquired by Hewlett-Packard in 1990), and sent to Giovanni Moretti of Massey University, from whom it was propagated widely.[1]
The original 51forth.zip package is available from many archive sites, along with several other implementations of Forth.
This implementation is
RTX2000 Forth system connected to dual-ported RAM
